As part of the Andaz Salon series, a panel of industry experts will be armed and ready to discuss the roles of women in the electronic music industry. This open dialogue with San Diego’s local beat-makers will take place on Saturday, March 23 starting at 7 p.m.

Take a look at women who have influenced nightlife entertainment in the past and those who are changing the face of it now. The panel will feature female DJ duo Posso alongside local talent Frankie M, Schoeny, Kevin Brown and Este. They’ll converse on the issues that women face in the industry and partake in an interactive Q&A with guests, followed by live demos.

This is the third installment of the digital music forum, engaging music-lovers to not only listen, but to interact with those who create the sounds. Come for the discussion, and stay for a Saturday night party at Ivy Nightclub, featuring more beats by Posso and a live showcase from the dancers of Lipstik Inc.

Details: The Behind the Beat event is free and open to the 21+ crowd. RSVP for hosted bar via andazsandiego@prchemistry.com. For more information, visit andazsandiego.com.
